TS3623 I can't see my rented movie on my Apple TV?

I purchased a movie today for a kids party tonight and it shows on my computer but not on the Apple TV?
Tried to re-purchase and it tells me I've already rented it but it doesnt show on the menu??
Help Please!

Verify the timezone settings is correct. Fixed the same issue for me 3-4 months back.

  • HT1657 can I play a rented movie on an Apple TV 2nd gen while downloading?

    Can I play a rented movie from itunes on an Apple TV 2 while the movie is still downloading? I can watch it on the Mac that it is downloading on but the air play symbol does not appear to be apple to select the ATV. Does the movie have to completely download first?

    'Make sure your iTunes is up to date 10.5 at the top where the tabs are turn on "Home Sharing" by enabling it on your MACBookPro under the advanced tab using your Apple ID and PW  then turn on your AppleTV and on the far right side click on "Computers" repeat turning on "Home Sharing" on there then start your movie and click on the AirPlay Icon then select send to AppleTV! There are a few other more ways to do the same thing but thats the easiest let me Know if you need more info .

  • How can i watch a rented movie in my apple tv?

    I rented a movie in iTunes and want to watch it in my apple TV.  I try to "drag" the movie to the apple TV under Devices, and can't seem to do it.  When I go to my shared movies in apple TV the rental is not there.  Does anyone know what I need to do?

    I assume you are using the Apple TV 1 (silver/grey).
    The rental needs to be transferred to the Apple TV. It sounds as though you have paired a secondary (streaming only) library only and you need a primary library to transfer content.

  • How can i see "recently added movies" on my apple tv?

    On my apple TV 1 st generation, i had the option to view the "recently added movies" on the apple TV menu. Now that i have the apple TV second generation, I DO NOT see this option but i can still see the option "genre, unwatched, by movie". Is there anyone who can help me out on this one? (By the way i had to move all my movies from one hard drive to another, maybe it's something to do with that?)

    I think I see now you mention playlists. You can create a smart playlist in iTunes and access it from the Apple TV, this would appear in the nested section under playlists though rather than in the three viewing options at the top of the movie listings. Before you can view playlists you need to enable playlists in the settings.

  • Apple TV: Can I watch a rented movie on my Apple TV?

    If I rent a movie from iTunes on my G5, would this movie be available to watch on either of my 2 TV, connected to the G5?
    Thank you.

    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
    If you download a rented movie on your computer, you can transfer it to your Apple TV, iPod, or iPhone. Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only be viewed on one device at a time. If you rent the movie on your Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on your Apple TV.

  • Can I play a rented movie on my Apple TV?

    I rented a movie on my MacBook Pro. I have an Apple TV and they're connect via my WiFi network. I am having trouble connecting the MacBook with the Apple TV to play back the movie on my HD tv. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • How do I view a movie I rented and downloaded to my computer on my apple TV. The ATV is not seeing the rented movie in my shared itunes library? I can't seem to transfer the rental to the ATV from the computer!

    How do I view a movie I rented and downloaded to my computer on my apple TV. The ATV is not seeing the rented movie in my shared itunes library? I can't seem to transfer the rental to the ATV from the computer!

    Dear friends,
    Thank you for responding to my problem so promptly. Frankly, I did not expect to hear from people so soon! The fact is that as soon as I posted the question, I was shown a number of similar queries and managed to find the answer. I have to say it's not intuitive! I have an apple TV original version. Apparently I had the ATV on streaming and not syncing. Streaming does not allow you to stream a rental from your computer whereas you can sync and transfer the rental from the computer!
    Thanks again.

  • HT1657 I rented movies on my iPad, they all downloaded, but when I click 'play' it says 'The requested URL was not found on this server'. What does it mean and how can I restore my rented movies?

    I can't download any rented movie. When I start downloading Windows iTunes crashes and Windows close this program. What should I do?

    If the problem is iTunes slowing down and not appearing to run correctly, you should check  this Apple article out-> Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    You may want to try resetting Winsock as a temporary fix.
    1. To do so, please do the following in an administrator user:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: Right click All Programs and choose Accessories > Command Prompt. Choose to open as an administrator.
    Windows XP: Click Start > Run and type in cmd.
    2. Enter the following command: 
    netsh winsock reset
    3. Restart the computer and test the issue.
    Note:  If the issue returns, third-party software may be reinserting the LSP.

    Some movies and tv shows that I purchased on the apple tv will no longer play. The movies and tv shows were watched then removed from the apple tv and stored on my computer because of the settings I had on itunes. I put some of the movies back on the apple tv and now only one, Quantum of Solace HD, works. The other movies and the tv shows give a message apple tv not authorized to play. I can still buy and rent movies on both my atv and computer. There have been no problems with the music that I purchased on either the apple tv or computer. Also the movies and tv shows can still be played on the computer without a problem.
    Has anyone else had this problem with their atv? Is there any way to fix this problem?
    Yes. I 'm adding this to the many problems I have experienced since the 3.0/3.01 "upgrade", as I have discussed in several threads here. I purchased "Up" last night, and it plays fine on my Mac. However, the Apple TV gives me the "not authorized" message. I rebooted the ATV, disconnected the HDMI, deauthorized/reauthorized my Mac which is streaming my content to the ATV and rebooted. I am running 2.2 (factory restore after the 3.0/3.0.1 fiasco) on my ATV, and iTunes 9.0.2, Mac OS 10.5.8. No success. Quantum of Solace plays fine, but Good Luck Chuck does not. What a freaking nightmare. This is the first time in my LONG history of Apple products that I have even wavered in my support. I used to sell Mac 512s in the 80's, and love the platform, have used Macs ever since. Apple TV is really starting to wear me down. I sincerely hope we see an upgrade soon but I'm really near the end of rope.

  • How many times can you watch a rented movie in iTunes?

    Title describes the question. I'm thinking about either buying or renting a movie in iTunes, so question is how many times can you watch a rented movie? Just once? X times within a given timeframe? Thanks,

    You have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your movie, and 24 hours (in the US) or 48 hours (elsewhere) after you've started viewing to finish it. Once the rental period expires, the movie will disappear from your iTunes library. Happy movie watching!

    I"m curious if the movie had been fully downloaded to the device before you turned on airplane mode.

    Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

    I read that I may need to start the movie prior to departure so that it can connect via wifi (or whatever internet connection I use) and start the 24-hr "timer" for rented movies.  So,.. no truth to that?  More specifically, I can start a rented movie on iTunes, while on a plane, without an internet connection?

  • Can I watch a rented movie from Itunes (iMac) on my Apple TV 3 without airplay and home sharing?

    I recently download a rented movie from itunes store in my iMac. My question is, if I can watch my rented movie in my apple tv without Airplay or Home sharing? The reason is because I don't want to turn on my iMac every time that I want to watch a movie.
    Thanks!

    If you rented the movie from Apple TV, then you can't watch it on the iPad.  The screenshot below is from Here
